This study aimed to compare the energy expenditure and intensity of active video games that treadmill walking in children adolescents.Seventy-two boys girls (aged 8-13 years) were recruited from local public schools. Energy heart rate measured during rest, 3-km/hr, 4-km/hr, 5-km/hr walks, (Adventure, Boxing I, II, Dance). During games, we also assessed physical activity using an accelerometer.The Adventure, Dance was similar at 5 km/hr girls. Heart significantly higher for game Adventure...

Physical activity, sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep are habitual human behaviors (HHB) which modifiable throughout the different life phases. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze how time distribution day among HHB may be associated with body mass index (BMI). These results could provide inferences can guide interventions that trigger changes in adolescent favor of their health. The objective this study was verify proportion adolescents who meet recommendation sleep, moderate vigorous...
